Pontryagin Duality and the Structure of Locally Compact Abelian Groups PDF
by Sidney A. Morris
Description
These lecture notes begin with an introduction to topological groups and proceed to a proof of the important Pontryagin-van Kampen duality theorem and a detailed exposition of the structure of locally compact abelian groups.
Measure theory and Banach algebra are entirely avoided and only a small amount of group theory and topology is required, dealing with the subject in an elementary fashion.
With about a hundred exercises for the student, it is a suitable text for first-year graduate courses.
